Mom's is best but Marion's is like Wow oh Wow
Okay we all know there’s nothing like mom’s pork adobo. But mom isn’t here with me right now and this recipe is so so very good. Simple and you prolly have all the ingredients in your pantry. I’ve used country style spare ribs and pork belly with yummy results. Okay I know this is not totally authentic but I do substitute cauliflower rice for white rice to keep a check on the evil carbs. But if I’m indulging I’m totally Zojirushi machine white rice making.
Fantastic and tweaked to cook in half the time
I halved this recipe and was in a hurry. I used a meat velveting process by adding about half a teaspoon of bicarbonate of Soda and a teaspoon of cornflour to the marinade. That cut down the cooking process so much. I also don’t have a wonderful relationship with rice so added about 3 cups of frozen green beans for extra bulk when I added the cooked pork. Stir fried for about 5 mins to cook beans then added sugar and coconut milk and cooked for another 5 mins. Wow, amazing!
One of the Best
What an amazing dish……only took the one serving to be come a favorite of everybody’s that I have cooked this for. Great flavors….restaurant quality meal.
